Pros

100% Paid health benefits, access to Udemy training, time-off and work-from-home flexibility, culture of kindness, promotes from within

Cons

Wish there was a more structured path to learn about all the products and what each department does. Would be nice if we just had more PTO rather than so many challenges to earn extra days off. The challenges are a lot of extra work.

Thanks for the review! All new hires are eligible for a full 20 days of PTO per year from the start - and can earn additional days from our quarterly Challenges which are designed to inspire Bandmates to be more innovative, healthier, think more deeply about important topics and push themselves to go beyond the status quo. Regarding WFH: while we are an in-person culture, all Bandwidth leaders already do have flexibility to address special circumstances.

Pros

Bandwidth has some of the most genuinely nice people I have ever met. It doesn't matter what department you are in, everyone is friendly and willing to help. If you want to stay at Bandwidth, Bandwidth will help you get to where you want in your career. I've never had a manager be so helpful and committed to helping me move to another position not in the same dept, They are always focused in your career growth and willing to help you get to where you want AS LONG as you put in the work. This is not a company you can slack off and expect to get promoted. From day 1, it was made VERY clear that we would return back to the office. Yes, it may be a little sooner than people expected but this has always been the plan. Enough employees are vaccinated, this is as good of a time than ever.

Cons

When covid was at its worst, I think the covid response could have been handled better. Employees lead by example and I think the CEO let his personal beliefs get in the way of a proper response. Despite what other reviews may say, the CEO does not push his personal beliefs on anyone. Any prayer he does, he acknowledges that you don't have to participate if you don't want to. I am not a religious person by any means and this does not bother me or offend me.

Pros

Amazing benefits, flexible hours, pays well

Cons

The entire company is a cult of personality built around the CEO. He gets into fitness so the entire company did. Management is also unable to provide specific guidance on what they need. So unless you're a mind reader, you as an employee are left guessing as to how to succeed.
